Gwangjin-gu's 'Youth Start Support Project' Promotion

Recruiting Participants Until June 9... Promoting Youth Entrepreneurship and Supporting Stable Housing Independence Through Network Activities

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Seongap) is promoting the ‘Youth Start Support Project’ to help young people achieve stable social and economic independence.

This project is the first to be implemented among the policy projects directly proposed last year by the youth committee members of the Gwangjin-gu Youth Network, making it especially meaningful as it realizes policies that young people need.

The recruitment fields include two areas: the ‘Majungmul Project’ for young entrepreneurs and prospective entrepreneurs in the region, and ‘Youth Jugeo’s’ which supports stable housing independence for single-person youth households.

First, the ‘Majungmul Project’ forms a network of young entrepreneurs called ‘Majungmul’ to share startup ideas, support promotional video and interview filming, and hold talk concerts with senior entrepreneurs.

The recruitment target is a total of 20 people, including 10 young entrepreneurs under the age of 34 currently operating businesses and 10 prospective entrepreneurs.

‘Youth Jugeo’s’ provides basic education on economics, including real estate and finance necessary for daily life, to young people preparing for independence, and supports activities by forming housing and finance communities for graduates.

The recruitment target is young people under 34 years old residing in the district, recruiting a total of 60 people in 3 sessions with 20 people per session. Online education using video conferencing programs will be conducted for the 1st session in July, the 2nd session in August, and the 3rd session in September.

Youth who wish to participate in each project can fill out the application form and consent form for personal information on the Gwangjin-gu Office website and submit them by email by the 9th. For more details, contact the Gwangjin-gu Office Child and Youth Division.

Mayor Kim Seongap said, “This project was prepared to support the new challenges of young people who will lead the future, as it realizes ideas proposed by the youth themselves into policies,” and added, “We will continue to prepare various policies that can be practically helpful from the perspective of young people.”
